Catenaty is a datapack that adds decorative chains and ropes, also known as catenaries, to Minecraft. You can place a catenary using custom Firework Rocket items, which lets you place the anchor points off the block grid for extra customisation.



Placing a catenary
Illuminating a cave with hanging lanterns.




Catenary items have a custom data component, which defines what kind of catenary will be placed. This data can be fully customised by map makers, but there's also a few presets available for survival players.



Showcase
Several variants of chains.



Showcase
Customisable text spellings.




For a full breakdown of Catenaty, check out the official wiki. If you use this datapack in your map, please do not forget to leave credit.

Thanks!

I didn't do any benchmarking, but while testing the pack I was spamming catenaries all over the place and it didn't seem to impact performance very much.

Performances are pretty good if you don't spam them like an idiot ^^

Because the item_display is an entity, it disappears with distance (48..).
So it is usable for custom project I guess!

What does the length text on the firework rocket refer to? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with distance...

It is the length of the rope, divided by the distance between the anchor points. So if the length is 1, the length of the rope is exactly the distance between the two anchors, so it’ll be a straight rope. The greater the length, the saggier the rope.

Oh, I get it now. Although the lore tag just says length, so it really looks like a length limit rather than a modifier.

It would make more sense, at lease to me, if the lore said "Length modifier".
Or if you added some sort of survival friendly length limiting system the length lore might say the actual length limit and the original data might be represented under "Modifier".

Thank you, author for such a datapack. It would have been good if you had left a link to the donation to support you with a penny!
